Mr. King

Mr. King is the main antagonist in Mega Man Star Force 3. He is the owner of the King Foundation, a front for his true organization, a crime syndicate called Dealer. He intends to have the Dealer members harvest Crimson Energy from fallen Wizards which were corrupted by Noise Cards, so that he can enter Meteor G's server, and use its power to control the Earth. Believing humans to be too weak to survive, he feels himself the one fit to rule humanity with his leadership. Despite Mr. King himself being human, he sees himself higher than humanity itself.

Appearance

Mr. King has an appearance of a middle-aged gentleman, wearing a high-necked jacket with golden points, a white shirt inside and small ribbon at the neck giving him the appearence of a casino dealer. He also constantly seems wearing a pair of white gloves, possible for the use of playing cards. On the left side of his face, is a blue strip stretch from the air to the chin. His hair is combed back and apparently dyed.

He always travel on top of a hovering massive black-colored deck, with many yellow lines in it, and embedded with many technologies such as displaying air waves and controlling Meteor G from outer space.

Personality

Mr. King is cruel and ruthless, and he will use both Wizards and humans (mainly children) alike without caring for them. This is revealed when the truth of King Foundation is told, that the adopted children were to be scapegoats for Mr. King's criminal activities, most of them never coming back, apart from Queen Tia and Jack. He can also be described as someone who hates to lose, as he was going to destroy Earth claiming that, "if it couldn't be his, then he would destroy it".

Mr. King feels that he is more superior than all of humanity, claiming that both humans and their technology were weak and that he would be the fittest to rule both. For such reasons he would use his powerful Noise machinery, act on his hatred towards the current society, and corrupt Wizards, traits that can effectively make Mr. King the replacement of Dr. Regal. Even more considering that he would use a cybernetic asteroid (in this case Meteor G) for his own purposes, pretty much like Dr. Regal did with Duo's Asteroid, as well as both LaserMan and Dread Joker (which are Dr. Regal and Mr. King's, Navi and Wizard respectively) have a strong resemblance to each other.

History

Mr. King is known to be ruthless, as he even has his Wizard, Dread Joker engage in combat with Acid Ace so as to harvest the Crimson Energy when they take each other out. When he escapes to his orbital base, he then uses Meteor G to attack WAZA - Alohaha, and WBG Studio, trapping its staff within Noise Waves, and making the place inaccessible due to interference. His subordinates Jack and Queen Tia confront him, but are shortly held captive. His right-hand lady, Heartless, then turns on him, releasing Jack and Queen Tia and attempts to trap King, but it fails when King reveals to have transformed himself into an EM being, much in the same way Omega-Xis turned Kelvin Stelar into one. Mr. King escapes into the Meteor Server, and Jack and Queen Tia follow, intending to use Meteor G for themselves.

At the end of the game, Mr. King appears at the end of the Meteor Server, and fuses with the core of Meteor G to become the Crimson Dragon. His plans foiled, he decides to use Meteor G to destroy the Earth. After the Crimson Dragon is defeated, Mr. King is ejected from the Meteor Server, his fate unknown.

Trivia

If the HumorWrd ability is equipped to Omega-Xis and the L button pressed, the player may get a call from Mr. King explaining the blue lines on his face. It is not in-depth and most of it is in whispers, but it has something to do with Heartless.

It is revealed in Star Force: Official Complete Works that, King's markings are actually a metal mask he is able to remove.
